His new favorite word

"Momma- can I take some water to Becky's house?"
"Sure bud"
"Oh good. I like to be all nice and hydrated"

Hydrated works its way into conversation at least 4 times per day :)

I was trying to explain to the little man that if he listened more, he would be in trouble less and life is way more fun without crying and time outs.
"So will you please start trying to listen to mommy"
(with a salute) "Aye Aye Captain!" and then he runs off

Maybe Someday

The thought of me writing down some of Nolan's colorful remarks really was solidified two nights ago. I found myself biting my cheek to avoid laughing at his query and wanted so much to share it, but felt maybe facebook would not be the best outlet.

The Set Up:
 I was folding laundry in my office because it has the chiropractic bench in there to set all the folded clothes on- Aila was napping and Nolan was looking through some books. He picked up a "skin disease" book that for some reason has always appealed to him- maybe a future dermatologist??

As he was flipping through the pages (of nasty pustules, infections and general ooziness) he opens to a large picture of a penis which probably has an STD.

"Mom. (sighing)  I sure wish I had a huge weiner..."  
I raise my eyebrows and bite my cheek because deep down I am still 14.

"Do you think that's possibly?"
(possibly, not possible)........ to which I responded "Maybe someday dude"

Disclaimer: I prefer anatomically correct terms for the male anatomy but my husband has completely ingrained the use of "weiner"- thanks honey

Of course this page is mostly Nolan even though I have two darling children. When Aila starts adding her own contributions, I guess I'll have to change the name. If she is anything like Nolan, this may be next week :)

Silly Kid to the Extreme

I have created this blog as a way for me to keep track of some of the funny stuff this little guys says. I know I will forget much but maybe this will keep him "little" in my mind even when he is old!! You will also notice I linked this page to Aaron's YouTube account so you can see our little movie collection too :)

To get started, I pulled together a collage of all the old status updates I used last year that mentioned things he said. This was created usung "My Year In Statuses" on Facebook


They can be found at the following link:

I am going to list a few of them out separately as well, in case this link goes away. I laughed and laughed when I read through these!! It is amazing how much we forget!

"Mom! My butt is like a trumpet"
"Do we have stomach to keep the poop pile in?"
"That was a cheesburger explosion!" -on sneezing with a mouth full of cheesburger
"Get me a snack then woman man" -on being corrected that a woman is called mam, not sir
"So is that my weiner?" -on learning about "cells" in my biology textbook
and
after wiping his snotty nose on my shirt "There! SNOT. Now she can't lay there" (the new baby sister)

I wish I had referred to him even more in my statuses because these are like gold to me!
